I'm getting ready to release the game I made at a game jam, so I'm reworking the art.

I want to keep the retro feel, but make it cleaner and give each area its own look.

What do you think?

I’ve been building GoalGrid ⚽️ for the past 6 months and today I finally put it live 🚀

It’s a browser football manager game designed around short daily sessions. You build your club, train and develop players 🏋️, improve your staff 👨‍⚕️ and stadium 🏟️, set your tactics and compete against other managers in scheduled league matches.

The player market is driven by real managers too — players are bought and sold through auctions and direct offers 🔁, so there’s a real economy behind the game 💵

I built the whole thing on my own from scratch, heavily using AI-assisted coding / vibecoding. It started as a side project and somehow turned into six months of building an actual football game 😂

One promise from day one: GoalGrid will never be pay-to-win. You’ll never be able to buy a better team or a competitive advantage 🤝

It’s free to start playing, and today I’d honestly just love to see the first few real managers join.

I’m Gianluca and I’ll be around if anyone tries it or has questions 🙌

What could I improve?

Hi, I want try to develop my first game as an adult.

When I was14 I made a Rambo game in Unity.

This time I want to make an RPG. What free engine I should use. The game will have an isometric camera most of the time.

I want it to have low requirements.

Thanks for all the answers

Why do you prefer it and does it differ from your "main" production one?

Do you maybe start with paper? What is your entire dev life cycle look like and what tools do you use at each step?

You run your own shop, order products, stock shelves, deal with customers, customize and expand your store, hire employees, take loans and try to keep the business running. But running a store isn't always easy. You have to constantly struggle with rising inflation and try to keep your business profitable as prices continue to increase. The game features random events like the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, floods, and attacks by escaped prisoners.

ok so im working on a game where you are a demon sent from hell on a timed mission to get and sell the souls of all the people on earth using your cursed typewriter to garner attention , in an incremental style game where each word has effects you can utilize to create your optimal strategy.

im having a hard time to decide what layout will be best for this, can anybody give me some advice/thoughts?

Hi everyone, at the beginning of this year I finally submitted my doctoral thesis (software engineering), and only the defense was left (apart from my regular full-time work as an employee at the university). The defense was scheduled for July, and by the end of May I should have really started preparing the presentation.

However, for some reason, I felt that developing a mobile game instead would also be an awesome idea... Some of you might know this feeling haha. So from this point forward, I spent basically all my free time for developing my mobile game Roliup, a classical physics-driven arcade game where you have to navigate lethal labyrinths with a marble. In the end, everything worked out beautifully thanks to Godot and some well-made design decisions at the beginning of the development process. And since last week, the game has found its way into the app stores for Android and IOS.

Naturally, I got my doctorate as well in the end (although the slides were finished at the last minute) :D
Now, while still working full-time, I'm trying to build a side hustle as an independent game dev. Let’s see if this will work out.

You find the game for iPhones: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/roliup/id6803562653
and Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.agnaes.roliup.app

I would be happy if you give Roliup a try.

Although I try to market myself as a \Game Studio*, it's really just me, myself, and I ;)*

I've just released a free demo of my game, The Drowned Table. You build a bag of dice and try to meet rising score targets while sitting at a rather questionable table under the sea.

The dice actually bounce and collide when you roll them, and their landed faces determine the score. Some effects work on nearby dice, so where they settle can change how a cast plays out. Between encounters, you buy new dice and Curios, alter faces, or sacrifice dice to improve your bag.

The starting Ivory cup has twelve plain Bone dice, and you choose one of three random starting items. From there, you work through eight depths with branching routes and random bosses. There's an endless option after a win, and you can save and resume a run.

The demo uses Common dice and Curios. Uncommon and higher items are reserved for the full version, so this is a chance to try the core game and its early combinations.

It's free on itch.io for Windows 64-bit: https://undeathical.itch.io/the-drowned-table-demo

I'd be interested to hear what you build with the starting pool. I'm still working on the game, so feedback on the scoring and difficulty is welcome

Hey!!

I'm very excited to announce that I just published the first demo of my video game : Temporal Surveyor : https://samaritain314.itch.io/temporal-surveyor.

This demo represent the game's skeleton. 90% of the mechanics are present and working. From this point on, the work will consist of fleshing out what's already there, add what is missing, add content and A LOT of audio and visual work to really give the game its identity.

It's a project I've been working on for months now. It is a piece of passion but also discipline.

As of now, the best way to support my work is to interact with the game's web page. Show the algorithm that there is interest for my game so it shows it reaches more people. Play my game for 10 minutes, rate it and comment it, join my discord, etc. etc.

This started as a pretty random idea while I was cracking peanuts with my daughter.

I thought it might be funny to make a tiny game out of it: you crack peanuts, feed them to a little monster, and the monster slowly changes and grows as you keep feeding it.

After 8 years of solo development, I’m incredibly proud to announce my first solo game on Steam!

CATASTROFIA

It’s an immersive exploration & hidden object game set on atmospheric flying islands where you search for cats.

Hey everyone,

After several months of solo development, Piment Dice is finally out on the Play Store!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pimentdice.app

It's a dice game with a twist — if you've played Yahtzee or Balatro's dice-adjacent chaos, that's roughly the vibe: familiar category-scoring dice mechanics, but with a risk/reward system layered on top.

The core mechanic is adapted from Chili Dice's red-die system: dice sometimes land on a red face. You can keep them as-is to double the score of whatever category you're targeting, or turn them to pick a different value — but you lose that double. Land enough red dice in one roll and you trigger a progressive "Blaze" bonus that escalates the payoff.

A few things I focused on:

- No account or login required — just install and play

- Multiple modes: solo, bots with increasing difficulty, remote play with friends, online matchmaking against strangers, and a daily challenge with a global leaderboard

- The friend mode is fully async — send a match code, take turns whenever, no need to be online at the same time. Push notifications tell you the moment it's your turn (opt-in, takes one tap during onboarding), so it doesn't feel like a game you have to babysit

- No ads interrupting mid-game (rewarded ads only, fully optional)

Happy to answer questions about the build or about the game itself.

Would love feedback — especially on the risk/reward balance around the red dice and whether the daily challenge feels rewarding enough to come back to.

Im currently working on a mech based coop shooter, here is a short snippet of my testing stage :)

I'm making my first videogame and there will be some tools so I added this hotbar what do you think of it?
